Guidelines for the guarantee on used machines

Used machines do not come with a guarantee as standard. However, you can purchase a guarantee on machines with the 'tested and approved' status.

Emergency power machines

You can purchase a one-year guarantee (up to a maximum of 1,000 operating hours). You can extend this guarantee to two years, if you also conclude a two-year Bredenoord Service Agreement.

Continuously running machines

For machines intended to supply temporary emergency power or that are used on a daily basis you can purchase a one-year guarantee (up to a maximum of 1,000 operating hours). This is subject to the condition that Bredenoord performs the regular maintenance. For these continuously running machines it is not possible to extend the guarantee to two years.

The guarantee period starts on the delivery date or after the machine has been commissioned (commissioning procedure) at most two months after delivery. The guarantee covers parts, and the hours needed to repair a fault. Travel and accommodation expenses are paid by the customer. The guarantee does not cover paintwork/corrosion. If the regular maintenance is not performed by Bredenoord the right to the guarantee expires. During any repair work, Bredenoord may supply a replacement lease machine, the costs of which are not covered by the guarantee.

In the event of any disputes we apply the guarantee terms and conditions as stated in Article 14 of the Terms and Conditions of the Dutch Metal Union.
